The words behaved this morning…
Except my grounded romantic short story suddenly has fantasy elements so it no longer qualifies for its intended submission. 🙄😂
Not to worry, I found a new potential home for it. 🤞🕯️🤞
Shall we call that an author pivot?

Huzzah! I cracked the short story code.
My WIP is finally behaving instead of mutating into a poem. The 1st draft of my first-ever micromance is finished!
Now for editing to breathe life into the prose. ✨

November tomatoes in Idaho? 🤩
I am tickled pink. Looks like I found today’s writing snack!
This volunteer plant is snuggled against the house where it’s warm and safe. Its siblings in the main garden did not survive the freeze.

My little writer’s heart is determined to write a short story but it keeps mutating into a poem.
Why, Words? WHY? 😩

Needles in my hands and feet are normal… but lately my face feels like a pin cushion for a busy ghost seamstress—a sign that I’m losing my battle with POTS.
It’s not going to be easy, but I’m committing to a new gym and therapy routine to stop this health free fall. 💪

There’s the pup on my lap
A book in my hand
Not a worry in the world
November’s sun is grand
Life is good today.

I’m outlining my new WIP now that A Kettle of Vultures is in the query trenches. It’s a grounded fantasy that will explore forbidden love (my favorite romance trope), the climate change, and how weird it is to be human.
How did your writing session go?

Why do I do this to myself? 😅🤦🏻♀️
I paint with words but my hubby asked me to create a 3D animation for him since I finished writing and editing my WIP. He’s too cute to tell him no… So I’ve been learning Blender.
Here’s a sneak peak. What do you think?

The pup and I are happy for all y’all who are delighted to have snow…
But do keep that fluffy white nonsense over there? It’s still leaf crunching season. 🍁

So this is how Midas felt! ✨
For seven years I have worked the soil, tilled and supplemented and begged this tree to make it through the year only for its leaves to wither beneath the merciless sun.
But it’s finally happening! 🤩
The leaves are turning to gold.

Forget smelling the roses, have you ever slowed down to marvel at the frost?
I shared this magical moment with the pup on our daily walk past my neighbor’s flower garden. I’ve never known ice to be this delicate.

Look who I found wandering through the leaves 🥹
She was too cold to fly and was nearly crushed by the pup. I held her in the sun until her wings could carry her.
Wasps are important pollinators, just like bees. 💜🐝

I am loving this series!
I don’t read many mystery books but MacCrae is particularly focused on character—my bookish catnip—as the cast unravels a tangled case.

I just finished polishing my latest query letter draft and am now moving on to version 3 of my WIP’s synopsis. I’m determined to finalize both within the next few days. 🪶

It was terrifying and exhilarating but overall a wonderful afternoon spent listening and discussing the writing craft.
Have you ever been a part of a group like that? I am all ears if you have any tips or stories!

The book blurb is NOT the query blurb.
That’s the writing/querying lesson that I learned today.
The good news: everyone loves my book baby’s cover blurb ✨
The better news: I’ve spent the past 2 hours on my query blurb and I think I figured it out! 🤩🪶
